Tsui, T.P.Y. (author), Wuyts, Wendy (author), Van den Berghe, K.B.J. (author)A geographic information system (GIS) stores, manipulates, analyses, and visualises spatial data. GIS enables the mapping of building elements and components and can optimise the location of facilities for circular activities, thus contributing to the closing of material loops and the spatial development of circular cities and regions. This...book chapter 2024

Brouwer, Niek (author)The tumor composition of breast cancer determines how tumors behave. Yet, there is a limited understanding of the arrangement of tumor cells in relation to cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). In this research, we have characterized distance relationships between 324 cell-type pairs in 749 tissue samples of the Molecular Taxonomy of Breast...master thesis 2023

de La Vega Bayma de Oliveira, Luisa (author)Accessibility is a fundamental concept concerning urban and transport planning as it is the elementary basis for socio-economic development in cities. It can be described as the potential to reach spatially distributed opportunities. Recent research has identified that excluding person-based features from this analysis might cause inaccurate...master thesis 2023

Verhoeven, Thijs (author)In 2008, a new concept to extract tidal energy was introduced called Dynamic Tidal Power (DTP). In this concept, the natural tidal wave propagating along a coastline is blocked using a long dam, inducing a water level difference between both sides of the dam. This water level difference, called the hydraulic head, can be exploited by placing...master thesis 2023

Hu, L. (author), Pinto, D. (author), Urakawa, A. (author)Direct valorization of methane via oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is an encouraging alternative to conventional oil-based processes for the production of light hydrocarbons (ethane and ethylene). Abundant, inexpensive simple oxides such as MgO and La<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> possess the ability to selectively activate methane. However,...journal article 2023

Zhou, Y. (author), Wilmink, D. (author), Zeman, M. (author), Isabella, O. (author), Ziar, H. (author)Integration of photovoltaics (PV) into the urban environment will play a major role in the energy transition. However, installing PV systems on building roofs can be challenging, particularly for monumental buildings with strict architectural and social value restrictions. Assessing roof surface visibility is, therefore, key to finding as...journal article 2023

Yiğitbaşi, Emre (author)Urban areas are evolving in terms of their growing population and their developing systems and infrastructure. This evolution brings about concerns regarding social equity, which refers to the fairness of distribution of certain attributes to groups or individuals. Transport equity is one of the dimensions of this issue, and accessibility...master thesis 2022

Stek, P.E. (author)Motivation. The sustainability technology sectors, encompassing health and sustainable energy technology, play a critically important role in addressing global challenges such as climate change and ageing populations, which require a transition to a low or zero-carbon energy system, and sustainable and affordable healthcare. While these problems...doctoral thesis 2022

Haasnoot, David (author)Rain gauges are a powerful tool to measure rain entering a watershed. When water flow through a watershed is modeled, these rainfall measurements are used as inputs. Hydrological models have become increasingly complex as they more accurately represent the physical processes occurring. This is mostly done by increasing the spatial and temporal...bachelor thesis 2022

De Carvalho Filho, L.M. (author), Sulis, P. (author)Void street interfaces (VSIs) – building plinths with restricted visual interaction, accessibility, and public use – constitute an urban feature often associated with undermining the public domain, limiting free access and preventing interaction between social groups. Moreover, VSIs have been described as products of inequality designed to...journal article 2022
